How can I listen to only one episode on a list of podcasts

Apologies if this is posted elsewhere...
I "upgraded" my old 160GB ipod classic to a new 120GB one (actually I dropped the old one down the stairs and had to replace it).
On my old ipod it used to be that if I wanted to listen to a single podcast (episoode) I just selected the episode from it's list. If I wanted to listen to the entire list of podcasts I would select the "group" from the Podcast menu.
Now when I listen to a podcast it then goes on to play the next one in the list. I like to listen to podcasts in bed - It used to play one and then stop. Now I find I wake up several hours later to find them still playing and my battery draining.
Is this a "feature" of the new classic? Can I turn it off? I don't want to have to pre-choose the podcasts and add to a playlist... I just want it to work the way it used to.

Experience (of iPods) tells me that the 160GB Classic and the 120GB Classic are from the same "family" and should therefore behave the same way. (The nano is a different family and the Touch another family yet again.)
So, since my 160GB Classic can play one episode at time, your 120GB Classic should too. To achieve this, turn on *shuffle songs/albums.* No, I'm not joking!
With shuffle on the Podcasts will play one episode at time when you select an episode from the episode list. Be sure to turn on the shuffle from "within a song" or from the ettings menu. If you have shuffle displayed on the main menu and use that to start shuffling songs, it doesn't affect Podcasts. You will know it's set correctly because the display will show 1 of 1 instead of 1 of "X".

  • How can I link to only one track on an album in the iTunes store?

    I'm trying to link to a song and keep it seperate from the rest of the content on the album.  The link generator is giving me a link to the song but it still brings up the rest of the album too.  Is there anyway to isolate and link to only one track?  Thanks!

  • How can I listen to a song from my song list and play my guitar on GarageBand at the same time?

    I want to listen to a song on my song list and play my guitar through GarageBand along with the song. I tried to do the iCloud thing but could not figure it out.

    Not at this time. iTunes Match downloads all music listened to on iOS devices. Period.

  • How can I display not only one account's mail but all in the central inbox?

    I am changing from OSX (machines with OSX 1.8.5 and Mavericks) mail to Thunderbird.
    However, one feature of OSX Mail I can't find in Thunderbird or have overseen it:
    I use several mail accounts, that OSX Mail is showing me on top level in one general inbox.
    Below that level, I can of course jump into the different accounts if needed to read mails only related to that account.
    Is there a similar view in Thunderbird?
    Thanks for any help

  • On opening 2 browser Tabs are displayed doubling the infomation how can I start with only one browser Tab?

    each time I access firefox 2 tabs are created each with the same information. To retrieve the information I must manually close the second tab else the info will not display properly. I am wondering is there something I can do to stop this from happening? It happens with direct open or from a link and if allready on a web page and open another via link 2 more Tabs are created it can become very crowded and hard to know which was first tab created. I do hope you understand what is happening and hopefully there is a cure. Thanking you Graham Rice

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • How can I listen to only the audio part of a video?

    I have the iPod Touch 4th Gen with 6.0 software. Sometimes I prefer to listen to movies or TV Shows instead of watching them, and I want to be able to turn the screen off while the video is still playing to save battery power. I've tried turning it off to standby then double clicking home and using the multitaskbar techniques but it just won't work! Is this even possible for this kind of software?

    If you find out anything new, please tell me, thanks!

  • How can I pinpoint not only one, but an entire group of contacts on Maps.  I wish to visualize where my contacts are geographically located.

    Hi,
    I wish to pinpoint my contacts at the same time on Maps, or other, in order to visualize where my contacts are geographically located.  Has anybody an idea?
    An app?
    A special configuration?
    A miracle?

    I think what you want is a Carousel Scroller.  See Demo and Examples

  • If I imported a CD into my iTunes library from one computer how can I listen to it from another computer?

    If I imported a CD into my iTunes library from one computer how can I listen to it from another computer?  I imported music from a CD into my compter at work and when I got home and went to my iTunes account none of the songs were in my library.  I also noticed that on my Work computer there were a couple songs that I had to click on the little 'cloud' icon before I could listen to them (these were not songs I imported they were songs that were already in my library).  Not sure if this makes semse...help.

    My question is since I have imported them into my iTunes library from one computer why can't I access them from my iTunes library from another computer that I have authorized to access whats in my library?  Is there no way to import songs only once into the library and then access them from all my authorized computers?
    Only if you have iTunes Match or of the computers are on the same local network.

  • How to play only one episode of a podcast on the iPod Classic 120GB?

    With my previous iPod-- the 60GB iPod Photo-- I could play only one episode of a podcast. I would scroll to "Podcasts" on the main menu, find the name of the podcast I wanted to hear, click on an episode and only that one would play. If I wanted to listen to all the episodes of that particular podcast, I'd access it through the Playlist feature.
    The system above for playing a single episode doesn't seem to work on the iPod Classic 120 GB. All the episodes play no matter how I access the podcast.
    What am I overlooking?
    Thanks.

    I must have had the Shuffle setting turned on for the old iPod, but I forgot all about that.
    Probably not! My 30GB video iPod will only play one Podcast episode at a time and this does not change by using shuffle. I think your 60Gb iPod was the same as the 30GB.
    As S_Edwards has posted and as you have found, the Classic does use shuffle to alter the way Podcasts are played. Quite why Apple use shuffle to control single or continuous playing of Podcasts, and then not document it either, is a mystery.
    As a useful reminder, while the Podcast is playing, the screen display will show 1 of 1 to denote single-episode mode or 1 of x to denote continuous-episode mode.

  • HT204088 How how can I synch my ipod + iphone music to my new computer? I get the same error  "my ipod or iphone is synched with another itunes library.An Ipod can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would I like to do Erase and Synch

    How can I synch my ipod & iphone music (purchased from itunes on my old laptop) to my new laptop? I keep getting the same message on my itunes on my new laptop: " The ipod/Iphone is synched with another itunes library. An ipod/iphone can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would you like to do - Erase and Synch or Transfer Purchases?" What do I do?
    A couple of other items:
    1) I am guessing Apple does not keep a history of all my music purchases? As I did not have my entire library backed-up anywhere, and relying on the music I have on my ipod and my iphone as my only source of itunes music....I have lost over 500 songs!!!
    2) I used to have an Apple account under another account name, and since have switched to a new account name. Is there anyway to find the history of purchases from my old Apple account name and transfer these over to my new account name and onto my new laptop?
    I hope someone can help, I am having a very difficult time trying to obtain answers. Angie

    The iphone/ipod is NOT a storage/backup device.  Not maintaining a backup copy is a big mistake.
    You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone/ipod to your computer:
    Authorize your computer for all accounts and then click  File>Transfer Purchases

  • I had 2 games of clash of clans on 1 game centre.  Now I can only see one?  How can I find the other one?

    My kids had 2 games of clash of clans on 1 game centre.  Now I can only see one?  How can I find the other one?
    My daughter set up a game centre on her ipad.  My son, on his ipad used the same game centre log in.  He then set up his own game of clash of clans.  After my son set up his Clash of Clans, my daugher set up her own Clash of Clans using the same game centre log in on her ipad.  Both were using the Clash of Clans successfully on their own ipads using the same game centre log in. 
    One day my son signed into someone elses Clash of Clans, since then he is unable to go back to his Clash of Clans and can only see his sisters.
    Please let me know if this can be resolved.
    We wish to delete my daughters Clash of Clans - as she does not use it at all.  We would like to regain access to my sons. 
    My son can visit his Clash of Clans - his clan name is 'The Big Boys'  He has a shield that is blue with a yellow lightning from top right to bottom left.  His name is Fat Poo (I know ridiculous).
    If you can help us or advise us what to do we would make my son very happy
    thanks

    Thanks for taking a stab at it: that didn't prove to be the problem. That option in the settings for tabbed browsing was not checked.
    I may be a bit behind the times: I am used to tabbed browsing showing all the tabs it possibly can, instead of just the last one. Sometimes it won't even show the last tab: I can have 15 tabs open, and not see a single tab. I've been confused by this into closing a window with lots of tabs open, because it looks like a single page-window.
    My main problem with the tab-bar flashing to the end of the row is that it means a great deal more mouse-clicking around to browse.
    I haven't tried installing the latest beta. Maybe that would fix the problem.

  • Can anyone tell me how to restore my itunes library and playlists? After I downloaded mountain lion my library is missing and my devices can be synced to only one library ...the missing one

    can anyone tell me how to restore my itunes library and playlists? After I downloaded mountain lion my library is missing and my devices can be synced to only one library ...the missing one

    That .itl file actually is the library -- at least the critical part of it although the library is actually many files and folders.
    Try starting iTunes and immediately hold down the option key.  When it asks, guide it to the .itl file.
    It's really hard to say without being able to poke around your computer.  Upgrading should not delete the old library, but still it happens to the very, very few which is why we make backups before updating.  If the old library file is gone then so are your playlists.  You can always see if the following is of any use:

  • Tv shows show up and play in itunes but only one episode makes it to ipod?

    My itunes purchased tv shows show up and play in itunes. As far as my ipod, only one episode will show up under tv shows. The other episodes don't show up under movies either. Can someone please help me? Strange that 1 of the episodes will show up on ipod but no others. They were all purchased on itunes.

    Check your sync preferences.
    There are now options to sync only watched / unwatched episodes, for example, which may be causing this.
    Connect the iPod.
    Wait for iTunes to recognize it.
    Click on the name of the iPod.
    You'll see your Summary page open up in front of you.
    Click on the tab for TV shows and set it how you want.
    Do this for all of the other tabs concerning file types you want on your iPod.
    Then, click the Apply button (lower right-hand corner)
    iTunes should now update your iPod preferences, and also the files on the iPod.
